<p>I'm not 100% sure yet, but I'm considering the use the gem name
<code>test</code> for a universal test runner I've developed. But
it seems the name has been taken:</p>
<p><a href=
"https://rubygems.org/gems/test">https://rubygems.org/gems/test</a></p>
<p>By this guy:</p>
<p><a href=
"https://rubygems.org/profiles/wooki">https://rubygems.org/profiles/wooki</a></p>
<p>But, as you can see, there is no contact information, no
description, and the gem itself has nothing in it except one
method:</p>
<pre>
<code>def jim
puts "JIM TEST GEM"
end</code>
</pre>
<p>So I think its safe to conclude that "wooki" was just doing a
test of gem development/gem pushing and this is not a real gem.</p>
<p>I would contact wooki to make sure of this, but like I said,
there's no contact information to be found.</p>
<p>So I am wondering would I be able to get control of the gem?</p>
<p>Then again, maybe you guys would like to keep it as a sort of
dev/null gem to test with?</p></div>transtag:help.rubygems.org,2010-01-19:Comment/88308172011-07-25T02:33:11Z2011-07-25T02:33:11ZTaking over `test` gem<div><p>Jim, are you interested in continuing to own the 'test' gem

should be all set to push a new one up as long as it doesn't match
those two numbers.</p></div>Nick Quarantotag:help.rubygems.org,2010-01-19:Comment/88308172011-08-11T00:03:41Z2011-08-11T00:03:41ZTaking over `test` gem<div><p>Still a problem. It seems it still thinks wooki owns the gem.
Even though I was able to push it the first time, I can't push it
now.</p></div>trans
